Moonshine Can - Ian & Sylvia[00:00:00]
Written by:Traditional[00:00:07]
Come all ye moonshine drinkers and ye will quickly see[00:00:14]
The work of the bold informers and the way they served me[00:00:18]
I'll tell of the bold informers and how they cowed aloud[00:00:21]
They jealously could not agree they turned me moonshine down[00:00:25]
It been on Easter Sunday morn when down the road I see[00:00:29]
Old Mickey wavin' both his arms and headin' straight to me[00:00:32]
He waved his arms and cowed aloud as down the road he ran[00:00:36]
Sayin' pat me b'y there's an awful kick about your moonshine can[00:00:39]
Then next there came the Magistrate to tell me I must go[00:00:43]
They made me walk that lonesome trail up to me knees in snow[00:00:47]
They made me walk that lonesome trail and put me on the stand[00:00:50]
Sayin' Patty b'y you'll have to pay for havin' a moonshine can[00:00:54]
I'd like to know how moonshine's made the Magistrate did say[00:00:58]
Of yeast cake and molasses sure that's the proper way[00:01:01]
Of yeast cake and molasses sure that's the cutest plan[00:01:05]
And the Magistrate was happy then he took me moonshine can[00:01:08]
The Magistrate was happy then God bless his eyes of blue[00:01:27]
He sent me home with a constabule and told him what to do[00:01:30]
To hear them break me moonshine can it nearly burst me heart[00:01:33]
But when they threw it into the bay it tore me soul apart[00:01:37]
Then here's to that good Magistrate may the Lord[00:01:41]
Receive me friend[00:01:43]
When he dies we'll bury him and he'll go to the other end[00:01:45]
Saint Peter then will greet him and the gates he'll then unlock[00:01:48]
Sayin' come right in dear Magistrate and welcome to the flock[00:01:51]
Now here's to the man who wrote this song I'm sure he was not lyin'[00:01:56]
And if you wants to know his name his name be Patty Ryan[00:01:59]
His name be Patty Ryan me b'y from Goose Town he belong[00:02:02]
And when moonshine time comes 'round again he'll make 'er twice as strong[00:02:06]
